PS., I wouldn't go overboard on this repentance thing. You're human. You did what 'comes natural' to many. For some it's a lifelong career, which contrary to what some think, was not the suggestion of this thread (though it was convenient to focus on Valmont).
Isn't it in all of us? Another thing, don't you, despite having risen to a higher moral plane, sometimes find that some form of self-absorbed or self-gratifying activity (or at least the urge) just peeks out. Puts in a brief appearance on your way to volunteer at the soup kitchen?
Would you tell your daughter 'Never do this, it's evil, and you'll end up in blazes." "Or, keep it within limits. Sometimes life is a battle and you do what you need to against the perceived 'enemy." or.???
